The Pasadena Cal. Star, of August

lawn fete given by Mr.. and Mrs.
Joseph Leighton.
"On last evening, at the residence OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Leighton, corner
Moline and Mountain avenues, occur.
red one o. the prettiest and most en-
joyable lawn fetes ever given in Pasa-
dena. Their fine lawn and roomy
rouse was given over completely to the
throng of guests who were fortunate
enough to be present. The house and
grounds were brilliantly illuminated
by lanterns, and presented from afar q
beautiful and imposing appearance.
The interior decorations were likewise
beautiful and effective, and reflected
great credit upon the artistic taste OF
the charming hostess, under whose
personal supervision the lovely effect
was produced.
A most pleasing musical programme
was presented, in which appeared to
great advantage the following artists:
Mrs. Buell., Mrs. Blake, Mrs. Hewitt,
Mrs. Hermann, Miss. Barnum and
Messrs. Kutnsr. Ellenberger, Tibbs
and Shawhan. Mrs. Cole also sang =
number with her usual artistic taste
and finish. A pretty compliment on
the part of the hostess, was the pre-
senting to each person lovely basket
of flowers. The pleasant occasion was
honored by the presence Of Clarence
Eddy, the renowntd d Chicago organist.
Later In the evening dainty lunch
was served, to which we can vouch
the inner man did full Justice. The
collection taken, amounted TO some
thing over sixty-seven dollars, which
goes to swell the orgal fund of the
Episcopal church, for which purposs
the pleasant affair was given"

to find out who the thief was. 4 A little
quiet detective work fastened suspic-
ion on the operator but IL was only
suspicion and not tangible enough to
warrant an accusation or arrest. In
this dilemma the section men put up
q job by which half dozen of them
rigged themselves up as vigilantes,
and with rope In hand made raid on
Mr.. Operator after he had retired. A
few. minutes before their arrival, the
section boss, who was In the secret Of
what was to be done, came In grest
alarm TO the couch Of the sleeping op.
orator and hurriedly awakening him
told him with every evidence of fright
that o gang VI vigilantes were after
him to hang him and that II he knew
anything about the missing money he
had better tell 1t and save his life.
Immediately on the heels Of this came
the regulators, gotten up In the most
approved style. The section boss, TO
carry out the illusion, made some
show Of defease but was speedily over
powered. Meanwhile the operator
had been seized, q rope put around his
neck and conducted out of doors, clad
In very scanty raiment. As soon -
he was out of earshot of the section
house, he was charged with the rob-
berry and ordered to produce the money
or suffer the consequences. Luckily
for the vigilantes their suspicious had
been correct. and they had the right
man. at the end of the rope. The
poor devil was thoroughly scared and
as soon as an opportunity was given
him, led the way to n cache where
the whole sum was found. After ad-
ministeriDg wholesome castigation,
bis captors set him free. and so eager
was he to depart that he struck the
trail across country in light marching
order and has not been heard of since.

ON A SUNNY SATURDAY.

The sun shone brightly and the city re,
joiced over the return of summer yesterday.
The prominent thoroughfares glittered with
the bright colorS of new fall Sly les. Every.
body seemed happy.
Dry goods men were exceptions. Many of
them have filed their windows with heavy
wraps fur circulars. wooden underwear and
winter goods generally. They looked little
ridiculous under the warmth of the bright
sun.
I'VE can't sell summer goods and no one
will talk winter wear" said merchant. I'VE
can't advertise, for who can say what to-mor-
row will bring us for weather: We sell little
things, but people will not buy winter goods
with such weather as this"
But this makes no one unhappy except the
coal men. and they know winter will come
sooner or later and are content. The rest of
the world would not mourn if we should have
such skies until April comes again. Yes, the
ice man and his pool might complain and
some of the rest of us might demur to a
charge of 80 cents for cobbler next sum-
Iner. After all. the seasons seem to come
Just right, and the higher Law which regulates
them is the better law.
Still we all like TO delay the coming of the
inevitable, and it is a relief to know that if
this Indian summer hangs on perhaps an
other stone may go on the new p0stofce and
We may hear, in u roundabout way, that the
iron for the steel arch bridge has been
shipped.
That block paving will be completed, too,
with another week of mildness. A month
ago everything in the line of permanent i'm
provements was stopped by winter. but since
then spring came and the broken thread was
taken up. First avenue south will be paved,
and every yard of work ordered for this year
will be completed.
SO it is not only the lady with no sealskin
that rejoices in the way fall fingers lovingly
